In his debut CD entitled Play It Loud, Chris Cagle unleashes his unique version of high octane country music that’s like an icy glass of Jolt Cola and a pair of well-worn cowboy boots. In the tradition of the Charlie Daniels Band and Travis Tritt, Play It Loud blends the soul of rock and country to create a new sound that remains rough around the edges.

With his musical palette, Chris creates a portrait that spans the gamut of emotion, from capturing the anticipation of a Friday night out with the boys and the fond remembrances of high school years to the passion of loving a soulmate or the heartbreak of the one that got away. Billboard Magazine describes Chris Cagle’s music as ‘an all-out assault on the senses.’ The review states, ‘In a day and time where people seem much too willing to play it safe and release vanilla music, it’s nice to hear something that has the blistering energy of a liquored-up bar band on a sweaty Saturday night. Newcomer Chris Cagle unleashes a torrent of vocal intensity on this uptempo debut that is quickly winning support at country radio.
